WHY IT MATTERS
Tata Elxsi’s results come after larger peers Tata Consultancy Services and Infosys posted an 8.7% and 3.2% rise in profit for the quarter, respectively, while flagging weak client spending amid inflationary pressures and high interest rates.
The company’s transportation business grew 26.1% year-on-year, helped by large deals and strong traction in Software Defined Vehicle engagements.
